...there is loads of interest in every chapter even for someone who has read a lot of the economic and political history of this period. * Diane Coyle, Bennett Professor of Public Policy, University of Cambridge, The Enlightened Economist * ... this book has many strengths. It provides a non-technical presentation of important ideas in economics and is accessible to readers with a limited knowledge of the subject. It is written in the style of a historian who presents lots of factual details based on meticulous research. It benefits from and excellent command of secondary sources including very recent publications. It covers a lot of ground very well. * Nicholas Crafts, University of Sussex, Economic Affairs *
